Only one chance in this lifetime…
Like watching sunset at the beach from the most foreign seat in the cosmos, I couldn’t resist a cell phone video of Earthset. You can hear the shutter on the Nikon as @Astro_Christina is hammering away on 3-shot brackets and capturing those exceptional Earthset photos through the 400mm lens. @AstroVicGlover was in window 3 watching with @Astro_Jeremy next to him.
I could barely see the Moon through the docking hatch window but the iPhone was the perfect size to catch the view…this is uncropped, uncut with 8x zoom which is quite comparable to the view of the human eye. Enjoy.
For the first time in over 50 years, humans are Moonbound.

약 50년을 항해한 끝에 빛이 하루 동안 나아가는 거리를 기어이 주파한 인류 최초의 탐사선이 될 것입니다. 이름의 뜻인 '항해자'에 걸맞는 기록이 될 것 같습니다. 이후 보이저호는 전력 고갈로 최후를 맞을 운명입니다. 사진의 출처는 https://t.co/1iqTJN1uCU 이곳입니다.
보이저 1호와 지구의 거리가 1광일(빛이 하루 동안 이동하는 거리)에 도달하는 시점까지 이제 약 1년이 남았습니다. 보이저 1호의 임무 종료 기간이 2025년부터 2030년 사이로 예상되는 것을 고려하면 이것은 보이저호가 남기는 마지막 업적이 될 가능성이 높��니다. 이로써 내년에 보이저 1호는
오늘 레몬 혜성(C/2025 A4)과 스완 혜성(C/2025 R2). 두 혜성이 동시에 지구에 가장 가까운 지점을 지납니다. 서로 다른 두 혜성이 근지점을 같이 지나는 것은 흔치 않은 일이기에 유튜브에서 실시간 생중계로 이 혜성들이 지구를 스쳐 지나가는 모습을 생중계 한다고 합니다.
